e. The property contains a 0.64 acre drainage basin at the southeast corner of the site
and an easement extending from the future right-of-way extension for Feron Boulevard to an
existing Sprint monopalm wireless communications facility along the east property line; and
f. The proposed onsite improvements consist of two industrial warehouse buildings,
totaling 64,509 and 85,494 square feet, of which 5,000 square feet is dedicated to office space in
each building, parking and landscape improvements; and
g. The proposed project meets or exceeds all Development Code standards. As
conditioned, the industrial buildings will meet all applicable General Industrial (GI) District
Development Code standards for industrial development.
3. Based upon the substantial evidence presented to this Commission during the above
referenced public hearing and upon the specific findings of facts set forth in paragraphs 1 and 2
above, this Commission hereby finds and concludes as follows:
a. The proposed project is consistent with the objectives of the General Plan. The site is
located within land designated as General Industrial. The General Industrial designation permits
a wide range of industrial activities that include manufacturing, assembling, fabrication, wholesale
supply, heavy commercial, green technology, and office uses. The project consists of two
industrial warehouse buildings on two separate parcels of land on opposite sides of a future right-
of-way extension for Feron Boulevard. Parcel 1 is 3.12 acres and consists of a 64,509 square foot
industrial warehouse building, including 5,000 square foot dedicated to office space. Parcel 2 is
4.40 acres and consists of an 85,494 square foot industrial warehouse building, also including
5,000 square feet dedicated to office space. Both buildings are designed for wholesale
warehousing with ancillary office uses. All site improvements, including parking and landscaped
areas, are designed to be consistent with the warehousing use and are consistent with the
General Industrial land use as designated in the General Plan.
b. The proposed use is in accord with the objectiveS of the Development Code and the
purposes of the district in which the site is located. The Development Code designates the project
site as a General Industrial (GI) District. The potential industrial and warehousing land uses that
would be associated with this project are consistent with the General Industrial (GI) District. The
zoning of the adjacent sites to the property are also in the General Industrial (GI) District and
consist of industrial warehouse buildings. The design of the project site and building is similar in
scale and intensity to neighboring lots. Parcel 1 has a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.52 and Parcel
2 has an FAR of 0.45. Both buildings are below the maximum 0.60 FAR allowed in the General
Industrial (GI) District.
c. The proposed use is in compliance with each of the applicable provisions of the
Development Code. The buildings are designed for industrial warehouse operations with ancillary
office space to support the main warehousing use. The buildings meet all setbacks, floor area
and height requirements. The buildings have been designed to meet the City's architectural
standards. Both parcels meet the minimum parking, access and landscaping requirements.
Therefore, the project meets all applicable provisions of the Development Code.
d. The proposed use, together with the conditions applicable thereto, will not be
detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare, or materially injurious to properties or
improvements in the vicinity. The site is surrounded by industrial facilities of a similar scale and

intensity and bounded to the south by the Metrolink Rail Line. Operations on the site are expected
to meet all Development Code standards regarding noise and odor. The project site is located
within '/4 mile of potentially sensitive receptors, including a residential condominium complex, two
single-family homes and a Montessori school. However, mitigation measures have been applied
to the project to reduce air quality and noise impacts to a less-than-significant threshold.
Therefore, the proposed use is not expected to be detrimental to public health, safety, welfare,
and/or materially injurious to properties or improvements.
4. Based upon the facts and information contained in the proposed Mitigated Negative
Declaration, together with all written and oral reports included for the environmental assessment
for the application, the Planning Commission finds that there is no substantial evidence that the
project will have a significant effect upon the environment and adopts a Mitigated Negative
Declaration and Monitoring Program attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference,
based upon the findings as follows:
a. Pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") and the City's
local CEQA Guidelines, City staff prepared an Initial Study of the potential environmental effects
of the project. Based on the findings contained in that Initial Study, City staff determined that,
with the imposition of mitigation measures, there would be no substantial evidence that the project
would have a significant effect on the environment. Based on that determination, a Mitigated
Negative Declaration was prepared. Thereafter, the City staff provided public notice of the public
comment period and of the intent to adopt the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
b. During the public comment period, City staff received comments from the
Department of Toxic Substances, Southern California Air Quality Management District, Native
American Heritage Commission, San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, and the Southern
California Regional Rail Authority. Staff consulted with each agency to resolve concerns of
potential impacts regarding hazardous materials, air quality, Native American cultural resources
and site access to the Metrolink right-of-way. The applicant provided new and revised studies to
both the Department of Toxic Substances and the Southern California Air Quality Management
District. Staff received approval from the Department of Toxic Substances to conduct a review of
the new studies and determine whether the studies addressed the concerns raised. Staff reviewed
the two reports provided by the applicant and determined that they fully addressed all concerns
raised. Staff also received approval from the Southern California Air Quality Management District
for the updated Air Quality Assessment (dated July 7, 2017). The applicant provided plans
showing how the Metrolink right-of-way access will be restricted to the satisfaction of the Southern
California Regional Rail Authority and no additional concerns were raised. Staff resolved concerns
from the Native American Heritage Commission and the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians by
incorporating mitigation measures and conditions of approvals to address issues raised.
c. Following approval from all agencies, the applicant proposed removal of
mitigation measures 3 & 4 from the Biological Resources section in the proposed Mitigated
Negative Declaration. The proposed mitigation measures required the applicant to consult with
the Army Corps of Engineers and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to
determine whether modification of onsite conveyance ditches and basin would require a permit
from either agency. The applicant provided staff with a Preliminary Delineation Determination
report (dated April 19, 2017) that stated that the Army Corps of Engineer and CDFW had no
jurisdiction over the site's conveyance ditches and basin. The report concluded that no permits

would be required. Staff removed the two mitigation measures and recirculated the Mitigated
Negative Declaration pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15073.5 on August 14, 2017.
d. The Planning Commission has reviewed the Mitigated Negative Declaration and
all comments received regarding the Mitigated Negative Declaration and, based on the whole
record before it, finds: (i)that the Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared in compliance with
CEQA; and (ii) that, based on the imposition of mitigation measures, there is no substantial
evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment. The Planning
Commission further finds that the Mitigated Negative Declaration reflects the independent
judgment and analysis of the Planning Commission. Based on these findings, the Planning
Commission hereby adopts the Mitigated Negative Declaration.
e. The Planning Commission has also reviewed and considered the Mitigation
Monitoring Program for the project that has been prepared pursuant to the requirements of Public
Resources Code Section 21081.6 and finds that such Program is designed to ensure compliance
with the mitigation measures during project implementation. The Planning Commission therefore
adopts the Mitigation Monitoring Program for the project.
f. The custodian of records for the Initial Study, Mitigated Negative Declaration,
Mitigation Monitoring Program and all other materials which constitute the record of proceedings
upon which the Planning Commission's decision is based is the Planning Director of the City of
Rancho Cucamonga. Those documents are available for public review in the Planning
Department of the City of Rancho Cucamonga located at 10500 Civic Center Drive, Rancho
Cucamonga, California 91730, telephone (909) 477-2750.
5. Based upon the findings and conclusions set forth in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, and 4 above,
this Commission hereby approves the application subject to each and every condition set forth in
the Conditions of Approval, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
6. The Secretary to this Commission shall certify to the adoption of this Resolution.

41. Perform a Burrowing Owl Survey that is in conformance with the Department of Fish and Wildlife
Staff Report on Burrowing Owl Mitigation and submit the written report outlining the findings to the
California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and the Planning Department within 30 days of
groundbreaking activity. The survey shall include a habitat assessment, survey and impact
analysis. The Burrowing Owl Survey shall follow the following protocol:
• Burrowing Owl Survey methodology shall be based on Appendix D (Breeding and
Non-breeding Season Surveys and Reports) of the CDFW Staff Report. Results
of the pre-construction survey shall be provided to CDFW and the City. If the pre-
construction survey does not identify burrowing owls on the project site, then no
further mitigation is required. If burrowing owls are found to be utilizing the project
site during the pre-construction survey, measures shall be developed by the
qualified biologist in coordination with CDFW to avoid Impacting occupied burrows
during the nesting period. These measures shall be based on the most current
CDFW protocols and will at minimum include establishment of buffer setbacks
from occupied burrows and owl monitoring. If ground-disturbing activities are
delayed or suspended for more than 30 days after the pre-construction survey, the
site shall be resurveyed for owls.
• During the non-breeding season from September 1 through January 31, if burrows
are occupied by migratory or non- migratory resident burrowing owls during a pre-
construction survey, burrow exclusion and/or closure may be used to exclude owls
from those burrows. Burrow exclusion and/or closure should only be conducted
by a qualified wildlife biologist in coordination with CDFW using the most current
CDFW guidelines.
• During the avian nesting season from February 1 through August 31, if nests are
discovered, they shall be avoided through establishment of an appropriate buffer
setback, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. The temporary "no
construction"area would have to be maintained until the nest has completed its
cycle, as determined by a qualified wildlife biologist. Once the nest cycle is
complete and all nestlings have fledged and have left the nest, construction in the
area may resume.

42. If any prehistoric archaeological resources are encountered before or during grading, the developer
will retain a qualified archaeologist to monitor construction activities, to take appropriate measures
to protect or preserve them for study. With the assistance of the archaeologist, the City of Rancho
Cucamonga will:
• Enact interim measures to protect undesignated sites from demolition or
significant modification without an opportunity for the City to establish its
archaeological value.
• Consider establishing provisions to require incorporation of archaeological sites
within new developments, using their special qualities as a theme or focal point.
• Pursue educating the public about the archaeological heritage of the area.
• Prepare a mitigation plan consistent with Section 21083.2 Archaeological
resources of CEQA to eliminate adverse project effects on significant, important,
and unique prehistoric resources, including but not limited to, avoiding
archaeological sites, capping or covering sites with soil, planning the site as a
park or green space or paying an in-kind mitigation fee.
• Prepare a technical resources management report, documenting the inventory,
evaluation, and proposed mitigation of resources within the project area. Submit
one copy of the completed report with original illustrations, to the San Bernardino
County Archaeological Information Center for permanent archiving.
43. If any paleontological resource (i.e. plant or animal fossils) are encountered before or during
grading, the developer will retain a qualified paleontologist to monitor construction activities, to take
appropriate measures to protect or preserve them for study. The paleontologist shall submit a
report of findings that will also provide specific recommendations regarding further mitigation
measures (i.e., paleontological monitoring) that may be appropriate. Where mitigation monitoring is
appropriate, the program must include, but not be limited to, the following measures:
• Assign a paleontological monitor, trained and equipped to allow the rapid removal
of fossils with minimal construction delay, to the site full-time during the interval of
earth-disturbing activities.
• Should fossils be found within an area being cleared or graded, divert earth-
disturbing activities elsewhere until the monitor has completed salvage. If
construction personnel make the discovery, the grading contractor should
immediately divert construction and notify the monitor of the find.
• Prepare, identify, and curate all recovered fossils for documentation in the
summary report and transfer to an appropriate depository (i.e., San Bernardino
County Museum).
• Submit summary report to City of Rancho Cucamonga. Transfer collected
specimens with a copy of the report to San Bernardino County Archaeological
Information Center for permanent archiving.
